As a man, therapy might not be your preferred use of time, yet a growing part of you is curious about what could be. Throughout your life, you’ve felt minimized and closed off from your potential. Maybe you’ve grown curious about that. You know you have lots to offer, but you are uncertain of what that could look like. You want to gain confidence and independence to realize your dreams or control your addictions, but you haven’t found someone who cares or understands enough to provide you with the support you need. You are noticing a new excitement and motivation to connect with yourself and others in a healthier way. 

 I enjoy working with individuals as well as couples. Some couples notice they  seem to routinely get their “signals” crossed. I know how challenging it can be within a committed relationship—sometimes, feeling there are more downs than ups. You might notice yourself wishing your relationship was always happy and healthy, yet all relationships need some investment to thrive. Learning about yourself, your partner, and your cycles of communication can be a great place to start.

From your initial consultation, I work collaboratively with my clients to provide a clear understanding of how therapy will look. I work mainly with experiential models of therapy so that you can practice new tools in session. Knowing a lot is one thing, remembering and understanding how to do it is another.

I hold a Bachelor of Leadership from Trinity Western and a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from the Townsend Institute. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC #20305) with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors.
